Originally, google. I hung around about a month but left originally because I thought the general vibe was pretty anti-intellectual .. young fast draw atheists looking to bloody theists.
From there I went to Agnostic Forums, a UK site, but the admin was pretty deist and I sometimes felt like I had to tone down my unquestioned atheism.
Next stop, Agnostics International. Very small population but thoughtful debate. I'm still a mod there but I like to post-around.
At some point I sent an email to this site talking about my old criticisms of this place. Summer Queen responded and that drew me back. Until I got banned last month I'd been here for maybe a year. After exchanging non-apologies with Tiberius my sentence was recently lifted so now you all get to enjoy my wit and insight once more. (Amazingly there is still no charge for what I offer!)
In the meantime I've started posting at intelligentatheist. That can be good at times but, as with this place, some threads become tedious to new comers since the old-timers seem to settle into ongoing exchanges with each other in ways that have nothing to do with the topic. One soon begins to feel like a visitor to someone else's high school reunion .. bored to death.
There you go. More than you asked for .. but absolutely free!
